The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh College of Education and Human Services is seeking highly motivated individuals with their bachelor’s degree and a commitment to children with disabilities and their families.

The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) has identified cross-categorical special education as a critical licensure need for the state. The UWO Department of Special and Early Childhood Education has designed a post-baccalaureate K-12 Special Education Accelerated Licensure Program, which maintains the caliber of the traditional licensure programs while providing flexibility and opportunity for those working full-time.

Our K-12 Special Education Accelerated Licensure Program is taught by committed faculty and staff, giving  teacher candidates hired on a TIER I license and others with baccalaureate degrees the professional skills and knowledge to educate and empower all students with disabilities and their families.

The credits earned in the licensure program may also be applied to a UW Oshkosh Special Education master’s degree program.
